Besides 09 and 14 “Les’ offense” was very underrated.
We'll have to agree to disagree.
Total offense ranking, Miles era:
2015: 58
2014: 75
2013: 33
2012: 77
2011: 57
2010: 81
2009: 102
2008: 51

Then you don't know what a counter or power is

They've had success running that offense for years, but not against elite teams. Even with a good QB, they struggle in big games. They had Russell Wilson in 2011 and still lost 3 games.
That offense is what Bielema tried to bring to Arkansas and that didn't turn out well at all.

They also have perhaps the best player in college football at running back.

Both Jonathan Taylor (who was a composite 3 star recruit) and Travis Etienne were not in the top 10 running backs coming out of high school in 2017, and now they are Heisman candidates. Funny old world.

Pretty damn good when you throw in the opponents we've played over that period and the conservativeness of Les post 08.
You harp on national rankings yet people blast other conferences for their lack of defense. Les is the guy that took a knee with 5 minutes left. With his 3rd string QB.
Guys like sumlin were throwing bombs up 70 on Lamar. Les owned that program.

So you want to bring back Les’s offense?
Posted on 8/31/19 at 7:57 am to Dynamis
Wow, that's something. And they'll probably be the first 2 backs taken in the draft.

They did it against us pretty well - 140 on the ground and the W.
16 total points on us. They won because Les Miles has olympic-level stubbornness and is an offensive moron. Wisconsin did not have an offense to be envy of.

When they lose 5 games this season let's revisit this thread.

This crap is not effective enough when you have to play good teams. I told people that Wisconsin has been getting these inflated win records because they play nobody. When you can run the ball well and have good defenses, you can win vs a lot of the mediocre teams, but to beat the good teams with better talent you have to run a modern offense.
I saw you said something about them running on us, but they average 3.2 ypc and only had 134 rushing in 2016. They scored exactly one TD as well.
Wisconsin finally played the big boys in their conference last year and got their asses whooped. Who cares if you can run when you get beat by BYU, lose by 12 to Penn St, 15 to Northwestern, and get blown out by 20+ points vs Michigan and Minnesota

You can’t tell me there’s not beauty in here:
Vs Oregon
At West Virginia
And before anyone even starts about the mulligan - it took the only team on par with us two tries. Still dominant.
